Russian propagandist Steshin denies the possibility of independence of Ukraine

Dmitry Steshin, a Russian propagandist and correspondent for Komsomolskaya Pravda, said on Russian television that Ukrainians allegedly “deny themselves” by denying everything which is “Moskalske”. The propagandist expressed the opinion that the Russian Federation should not “fire” the Ukrainians but simply “seize our own and make them even afraid to breathe in the direction of Russia.”

Steshin said that the Russian Federation must capture Kyiv. He called it a bad thing for Russia that even under conditions of long-term oppression, the Ukrainian nation was formed.

The relevant statement was made on the air of propagandist Russian television at the end of November 2022.
